Planote Privacy Policy
Last Updated: September 29, 2026

1. About This Policy

Planote is a note-taking and productivity application operated by SarıLab (“Planote,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).

This Privacy Policy explains what information Planote processes, why it is processed, how it may be shared, how long it is retained, and the choices available to you.

This policy applies to the Planote Android application and related cloud services.

2. Information We Process

Depending on the features you use, Planote may process the following categories of information.

Account Information

When you create or connect an account, we may process:

Your password is handled by the relevant authentication provider. Planote does not store your password in readable form.

Notes and User Content

Content you create may include:

Content may be stored locally on your device. If you sign in and use cloud synchronization, eligible content is also uploaded to and stored through Firebase services.

We do not claim that note content is end-to-end encrypted. Cloud data is protected using access controls, provider security measures and encryption in transit.

Device and Technical Information

We or our service providers may process:

This information is used to operate the service, maintain compatibility, prevent abuse and protect cloud resources.

Diagnostics and Usage Information

Firebase Analytics and Firebase Crashlytics may process application interactions, crash reports, stack traces, relevant application state, device metadata, performance information and installation identifiers.

We use this information to understand feature usage, diagnose crashes and improve reliability. Crash reports are not intended to contain the contents of your notes.

Advertising Information

The free version of Planote may display advertisements through Google AdMob.

Depending on your device settings, region and consent choices, Google Mobile Ads may process information such as:

Where legally required, consent choices are presented before personalized advertising data is used. You may also manage advertising settings through your Android or Google account settings.

Subscription and Purchase Information

Premium subscriptions are purchased through Google Play and managed with RevenueCat.

Planote and RevenueCat may process:

Planote does not directly collect or store your complete payment card details. Payments are processed by Google Play.

Security and Audit Information

To protect accounts and investigate misuse, we may record security events such as sign-in, sign-out, account restoration, data export and account deletion requests.

These records may include the event type, timestamp, IP address, user agent, device information and internal account identifier.

3. Device Permissions

Planote may request the following Android permissions when needed:

Permission access is requested in context where required. You can revoke most permissions through Android settings, although the related feature may stop working.

4. How We Use Information

We process information to:

Depending on applicable law, processing may be based on performance of a contract, legitimate interests, consent or compliance with legal obligations.

You may withdraw consent-based permissions or choices at any time. Withdrawal does not affect processing already completed lawfully.

5. Service Providers and Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal information.

We may share or allow processing of information by service providers only where necessary to operate Planote:

These providers process information under their own contractual and privacy terms:

We may also disclose information when required by law, necessary to protect users or the service, or as part of a business transfer subject to appropriate safeguards.

6. International Data Transfers

Our service providers may process information in countries other than the country where you live, including the United States.

Where required, international transfers are protected through contractual safeguards, adequacy mechanisms or other legally recognized transfer methods used by the relevant service provider.

7. Data Retention

We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy.

8. Account and Data Deletion

You can initiate account deletion from the account settings within Planote. You may also submit a deletion request through Planote’s external account-deletion page or by contacting us.

When deletion is requested:

Permanent deletion includes the Planote authentication account, synchronized notes and associated media under our control. Completion may require additional processing time because deletion jobs are performed securely and may involve multiple service providers.

Some information may remain temporarily in encrypted backups or be retained when required for security, fraud prevention, financial recordkeeping or legal compliance. Such information is isolated from normal use and deleted or anonymized when the applicable retention period ends.

Deleting Planote does not automatically cancel an active Google Play subscription. Subscriptions must be managed or cancelled through Google Play.

9. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:

Some information can be reviewed, edited, exported or deleted directly within Planote. Other requests may be submitted using the contact details below.

We may need to verify your identity before completing a request.

10. Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational safeguards, including authenticated access, database and storage security rules, application-integrity checks and encryption in transit.

No online system or storage method can be guaranteed to be completely secure. You should protect your device and account credentials and notify us if you suspect unauthorized access.

11. Children’s Privacy

Planote is not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

Where local law requires a higher minimum age for independent consent, users must meet that requirement or use the service with authorization from a parent or legal guardian.

If you believe a child has provided personal information without appropriate authorization, contact us so that we can investigate and take appropriate action.

12. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy when Planote’s features, service providers or legal obligations change.

Material changes will be communicated through the application, store listing or another appropriate method. The effective date at the top identifies the latest version.
